Offline documentation

Re: Lyrics for multiple verses fails in 3.0.1

I need to make a decision very soon as to whether to back out Composer 3.0.1 as the problem I currently have with entering lyrics makes it unacceptable for my type of use. So I would be grateful for...

Thanks for the rapid reply. I have to admit I don't yet understand the Piano Roll and the note duration possibilities.

I have a real problem with the piece attached. It is an SATB choir piece which I imported as a MIDI file from another choir: I have used a lot of their material before and never had any problems.
